THE SILDIER CROWNED. "God has crowned the soldier and let no man discrown him," said Dr. M. Marble in his sermon to the members of the G. A. R. yesterday at Grace M. E. church. It seems to us that this statement is uniquely original and at the same time as true as truth. The soldiers who fought from '01 to 'G5 did more than defeat the Iwys who wore the gray. Upon this contest hung two great questionsslavery and states rights and thesewere forever settled in this nation by the bravery and self sacrifice of the boys who wore the blue. The settlement of these two great questions laid the foundation for a real union of states and for the beginning of a series of events that have made this country one of the greatest nations in the world. It could never have attained its present proud position while in a state of disunion. Another thought forcefully presented by Dr. Marble was that neither those who wore the blue or the gray had ever put an obstacle in the way of our nation's progress during the last forty years, proving conclusively that after the war, we became a united people. The best example of this united people was shown in the late war with Spain, when the blue and the gray, side by side and shoulder to shoulder, marched away together to battle for humanity. The government, too, has crowned the soldier with ample provisions vrhen he is not able to provide for himself, and has given him a home for his declining years. But this is not all. The old soldier has a place in the loyal hearts of those who are now enjoying the blessings that he purchased at such a great price. The old veterans now living may rest assured that when they have all answered the last roll call, the living will do for them what they now love so much to do for those of their comrades who fell in battle. A loval, patriotic people will place a chaplet of flowers on

the graves of all at the return of each memorial day and commemorate their brave deeds in song and story. Their past is glorious, their future is secure.

MATTHEW STANLEY QUAY. The news of the death of Senator Matthew Stanley Quay was expected at any moment, notwithstanding the fact that the physicians in attendanceknowing the absolute impossibility of recovery continued ia "administering oxygen in the hope that it misrht revive him, notwithstanding Br. Williamson said he did not think the Senator would ever regain consciousness." Such was the practice on the dying body of Senator Mark Hanna, and it is a practice that might better be honored im the breach than in the observance when it is known that death is inevitable and that not even consciousness can be regained. , There were points of similarity in the lives of the two Senators also. Each was an autocrat in politics, but the autocracy of Senator Hanna was mingled with a kindliness of heart and a generosity of purpose and accomplishment in private life that went very far, indeed, tomitigate any hostility that might have arisen from his political control. Boi.li Senators were made the target of the most venomous attacks. Each had been cartooned in the garb of a convict, and in the dress of a sordid dollar man. In the case of Senator Hanna Ik lived down in public esteem the venom of the attacks, while in the case rf Senator Quay he was cleared of the venomous aspersions cast upon him by the verdicts of juries and the judgment of courts. Notwithstanding the attacks made upon the private and the public characters of the two Senators, each went on his way t election and to re-oleetions to the Senate and neither would have been do feated in his state while his party was in power, and while he desired reelection. The political purposes of each were direct, but the method of Senator Hanna wns the more open, while the hand of Senator Quay was read only by himself. Senator Hanna had a larger personal following to wkovn he was endeared for other than political reasons only. Senator Quay was politician pure and simple, and his friendships were the friendslups of politics. Each was a man of purity of morals and each was beloved in his homo. They were alike, but they were different. Both were strong men and inclined to grasp the reins, but each was sincerely devoted to his party and to his word, when once it wa given. It is well in the presence of death to forget animosities and it is undoubtedly true that posterity will do justice to the works of both, forgetting the eveil that was in both, as it is in all men. Such is the way of posterity, and it is the better way. Commercial Tribune.

Rev. E. E. Newbert, pastor of one of the Indianapolis Unitarian churches, said in a sermon yesterday: "What China needs is not the Bible, not the Christian belief, not the New England Sabbath, China needs to rekindle the fires of her national life from the live coal of the vital western civilization." This is remarkable from the lips of a minister. Another Indianapolis minister said: "A serious blunder was made when Princ Pu Lun was shown a continental Sabbath instead of an American Christian one while in Indianapolis." These two ministers have very divergent views on the Sabbath and the function of the Christian minister. It is no wonder that the laity have so many creeds and that some of thm are in a quandary as to what to believe. The ministers ought to get nearer together. " ' " ' ' ' -? Another "Republican United States Senator has answered the summons that all must sometime answer. It will now be in order for some of the "yellow journals" to place their flags at half mast, not because Senator Ouay is dead but because they are sorry for the abuse they heaped upon him while he was living.

Charles B. Landis, congressman from the ninth district, will be in the race for the United States Senate to succeed Senator Fairbanks. The other fellows will have to reckon with one of the shrewdest politician in Indiana. Charlie usually gets what hegoes after.

TO DRY THE HAIR Woman Invents an Appliance Useful To Her Sex. The greatest trial of a woman's life is the process of drying her hair after having treated it to a mneh-de-sired bath. Hair drying is a tedious and trying performance, and woman wants to experience it as seldom as possible. Tt. is not singular that a Tfoman has designed a way to relieve Her sisters of much of the inconvenience of this ordeal. ,

j A few days ago the commissioner of patents at Washington granted woman of Richmond, Ind., patent .rights for the patent for drying hair. Tt consists of two rollers, which are run through the hair, and which bearing firmly against each other, press out the water as thoroughly as mechanical means can accomplish this purpose. After a complete treatment of the tresses with the machine there is so little moisture remaining that (the hair is easily dried before a fire or in the sun. The operation is quick and thorough.

Earlham cemetery, where the regular memorial services of the day were held, under the auspices of Sol Meredith Post, and were most impressrve. The regular ritualistic service Hvas carried out and was most impressive.

Rev. Dr. R. S. Lyons of the United Presbyterian church, the chosen orator for the occasion, delivered the memorial address. It was a beautiful tribute to the dead soldiers, and splendid sentiment for the. living. Following is the address: Fellow Citizens and Comrades: We are assembled today in honor of the dead. Honor is but the currency wherewith we pay the debt of reverence. We reverse the memory of the dead, we hold in reverence the country they saved and the cause to which they gave the last full measure of devotion; but the duty of the hour will not be done till we here highly resolve that the dead shall not have

died in vain.

"Ah! never shall the land forget How gushed the life-blood of her

brave;

Gushed, warm with hope and cour

age, yet

Upon the soil they fought to save." "Soon rested those who fought; but

of nations and then we should gird up our loins like men. We have had a noble history. Bunker Hill; Saratoga and Yorktown; Chicamauga, Gettysburg and Appomattox. Your heart beats quicker as you think of them; but the glory of our nation lies not in deeds of heroism. Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom. Neither let the mighty man glory in his might; let not the rich man glory in his riches; but let him that glorieth glory in this: that he understandeth and knoweth me, that I am the Lord which exercise loving kindness, judgment and righteousness in the earth; for in these things I delight, saith the Lord. Our chief glory lies in the fact that in the march of human progress we have tried to keep step with God. Our Pilgrim Fathers landed "On a stern and rock-bound coast. Where the woods against a stormy sky Their giant branches tossed." They were the pioneers of democracy anrl liberty was their beacon light. The new-born nation ere long had her baptism of blood and when the laurels of victory crowned her, freedom sat enthroned. And now on the horizon there came a cloud like a man's hand, which grew till it darkened the whole south and threatened to overshadow the north. On the battlefield two civilizations contended for the mastery. It was impossible that they should dwell in unity. Maurice Thompson, of Indiana, has told the rest of the story: "I am a Southerner, T love the South I dared for her, to fight from Lookout to the ,sea, With her proud banner o'er me. But from my lips thanksgiving broke When God in battle thunder spoke And that black idol, breeding drouth And dearth of human sympathy Throughout the sweet and sensuous South, Was, with its chains and human yoke, Blown hell ward from the cannon's month, While Freedom cheered behind the smoke." Bunker nill, Saratoga, or Yorktown;' Gettysburg, Chickamanga, or Appomattox; it was freedom that cheered behind the smoke. "There be three things that make a nation great," says Franklin; "fertile fields, busy workshops and easy means of conveyance of men and goods from place to place." But there be three things also which make a nation mighty: Liberty, Equality, Law. Listen to the immortal words of Lincoln at Gettysburg. "Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent a new nation conceived in liberty and dedicated to the proposition that all men

are created equal."Liberty and equality : this is the spirit of democracy. But liberty and equality ; mast be safeguarded by, law. Law may be to men wha th-bars', of r.ljis f.eell f i&J to the criniinnl an obstacle bet weenf us and pur own will; but law is infinitely more than a restriction of liberty. The essence of law is the life of God. Justice and judgment are the habitation of His throne. Liberty and equality crystallized in law, wrought out in life, this gives to the individual the strength of all and it is this spirit of democracy that makes it possible that the common man may come up into the seat of the mighty. A nation's greatest peril is her prosperity. Prosperity enervates. Under its smiles we forget. In great crises the nation girds itself. Our nation needs to learn that power is man's equipment for service not his weapon for conquest, and that no nation abides the peril of irreverence for law.

Now, shall we, the living, "here here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain?" ! Perpetuity may be a vain-glorious ' dream. Let us strive and pray that our nation shall endure. Yes; but still more earnestly that her spirit

may live. Nations are immortal till their work is done. j Religion, Art, Law; the nations' that gave the world these have passed away, but their spirit abides. Shall it be ours to bequeath to the world liberty safeguarded by law? Then1 must we learn that patriotism and education alone can never perpetuate. "Devotion to the right as God gives' us to see the right." This is the glo- J ry of the comrades gone, that they ' conquered wrong. j "Wrong, though its title deeds go

back to the days of Sodom, is by nature a thing of yesterday." Patriotism, intelligence, reverence.

righteousness; these are they that give quality which abides. If these are in use then are we secure. "Long as thine art shall love true love, Long as thy science truth shall know, Long as thine eagle harm no dove, Long as thy law by law shall grow; Long as thy God is God above, Thy brother every man below, So long, dear land of all my love, Thy name shall shine, thy fame shall glow."

There is no time so dear to the Catholie child as first communion day. Around it cling memories that

are hallowed and that time cannot efface. Yesterday with its bright sunshine and warmth, was very appro- j priate for the reception of the sac-j rament. For some time a class has been in preparation by the sisters of St. Francis and Rev. Father Roell, and yesterday was the culmination of their labors. The altars were beautifully decorated with flowers and pot-1 ted plants, while hundreds of candles J shed a halo over the scene. The lit-! tie girls were dressed in pure white ' and the boys in black, together with ' the floral cross made a picture beau-j tiful to behold, and reflected the purity of the hearts of the yound people j who were about to receive their Lord and Master for the first time. High mass was celebrated by Rev. Father '

Roell, who also preached the sermon on the occasion. The special music prepared by St.

Andrew's choir under the direction of Prof. Richter, who is also the organist, was especially fine and refleeted credit on one of the best choirs in the city. The following boys and girls were the recipients of the sacrament: j Leo Wilkemeyer, Robert Robe, Jos. Austermann, Edward Vogelgesong, Carl Stever, John Winter, Frank Gatzek, Henry Cohurst, Jos.
